Protests Outside West Hollywood Home of Prominent Political Donor, Where a Second Man Is Found Dead

[dropcap size=big]P[/dropcap]rotesters gathered outside a West Hollywood apartment building on Monday night to decry what they called inaction and indifference to the second time in less than two years that a black man was found overdosed inside a property belonging to prominent Democratic donor Ed Buck.

A black man in his 50s was found dead early Monday at the same West Hollywood apartment where another man, 26-year-old Gemmel Moore, died of a drug overdose about 18 months ago. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has not yet disclosed the deceased person’s name.

“The cause of death is unknown at this time. That will be determined by the coroner’s office,” Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Deputy Dan Robinson told L.A. Taco.
